Ultimate goal of the project


The promotion of research and the development of advanced know-how in processes, design, techniques and tools for the treatment of highly polluted wastewater streams such as the effluents produced by landfills, combining in a flexible and efficient way various conventional activated sludge technologies (CAS or SBR) with cutting-edge technologies such as ultrafiltration and AOPs

Necessity of the project

The treatment of highly polluted load wastes such as landfill drainage is one of the most important technological challenges nowadays. Today the technologies applied include, depending on the degree of treatment required, devices combining biological and/or physico-chemical methods with membrane technology, such as reverse osmosis.

However, many of these applied technologies require high investment and operating costs and particularly skilled personnel, making it imperative to improve and modernise treatment systems with advanced and innovative technologies in order to minimise not only the environmental burden, but also the investment and operating costs of treatment.

Project Goals

Utilization and combination of the know-how available in two leading educational/research institutions in Greece (AUTH & HOU) and two of the most recognized companies in the field of waste and sewage management (EDADYM S.A., DIADYMA S.A.) for the benefit of local communities and the Greek economy

Reduction of gas emissions and process by-products (sludge reduction)

Significantly lower investment (<50%) & operating costs (<10%) compared to conventional processes

Reduction of installation space

Increase the level of automation of the control of parameters affecting the processes

Transfer of know-how of the proposed anti-pollution technology (AS/UF/UV/AOPs) on a large scale and its application prospects in other facilities managed and controlled by EDADYM S.A.

Cooperation between 2 Research Institutions & 2 Companies The project team consists of two Universities (AUTh & HOU) which will provide the basic research on which to base the design of the model hybrid drainage treatment pilot plant to be built under the supervision of EDADYM S.A., a recognized company in waste management and in the development and manufacture of antifouling technologies and will be installed at the W. Macedonia landfill (DIADYMA S.A.).

Treatment of Drainage Waste Water Treatment Plant of Western Macedonia

The main objective of the project is the design and construction of a Hybrid Pilot Plant UF & UV/AOPs for the treatment of the wastewater from the W. Macedonia Waste Water Treatment Plant. In this context, parameterization-optimization of the proposed antifouling technology (SBR/UF/UV/AOPs) will be carried out in a real environment (Waste Water Treatment Plant D Macedonia). The possibility of replication and transferability of the proposed antifouling technology (AS/UF/UV/AOPs) on a large scale will be investigated and its economic and environmental viability and its success prospects in other facilities managed and controlled by EDADYM S.A. will be studied.
